Junibacken

About

Junibacken is a children's attraction, founded by Staffan Götestam, Fredrik Uhrström and Peder Wallenberg. It is situated on the island of Djurgården in Stockholm, Sweden. It was officially opened by the Swedish royal family on 8 June 1996. It is Stockholm's 5th most-visited tourist attraction. It is devoted to Swedish children's literature, but especially Astrid Lindgren. Outside the building is a bronze statue of Lindgren. The art direction and images for the interior design were made by Swedish artist Marit Törnqvist, who had previously made illustrations for more recent versions of Lindgren's books. Junibacken contains the largest children's bookstore in Sweden. The lockers in the entrance hall are unusual in that each is in the form of a giant book-spine, featuring world classics such as Treasure Island and The Jungle Book. Read more
